Isaiah 31

Look Not to Egypt but to God

1Woe (judgment is coming) to those who go down to Egypt for help,Who rely on horsesAnd trust in chariots because they are many,And in horsemen because they are very strong,But they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek and consult the Lord!2 Yet He is also wise and will bring disaster,And does not retract His words,But will arise against the house of evildoersAnd against the helpers of those who do evil.3 Now the Egyptians are men and not God,And their horses are flesh and not spirit;And the Lord will stretch out His hand,And he (Egypt) who helps will stumble,And he (Judah) who is helped will fall,And all of them will perish together.

4 For so the Lord says to me,

“As the lion or the young lion growls over his prey,And though a large group of shepherds is called out against himHe will not be terrified at their voice nor cringe at their noise,So the Lord of hosts will come down to wage war on Mount Zion and on its hill.”5 Like flying birds, so will the Lord of hosts protect Jerusalem;He will protect and save it,He will pass over and rescue it.

6 Return to Him from whom you have so deeply defected, O sons of Israel. 7 For in that day every man will reject and throw away his idols of silver and his idols of gold [in disgust], which your own hands have sinfully made for you.

8 Then the Assyrian will fall by a sword not of man,And a sword not of man will devour him.And he will flee from the sword [of God],And his young men will become forced labor.9 “His rock [his stronghold] will pass away because of panic,And his princes will be terrified at the [sight of the battle] standard,”Declares the Lord, whose fire is in Zion and whose furnace is in Jerusalem.

Isaiah 31

Woe to Those Who Rely on Egypt

1Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,who rely on horses,who trust in the multitude of their chariotsand in the great strength of their horsemen,but do not look to the Holy One of Israel,or seek help from the Lord.2 Yet he too is wise and can bring disaster;he does not take back his words.He will rise up against that wicked nation,against those who help evildoers.3 But the Egyptians are mere mortals and not God;their horses are flesh and not spirit.When the Lord stretches out his hand,those who help will stumble,those who are helped will fall;all will perish together.

4 This is what the Lord says to me:

“As a lion growls,a great lion over its prey—and though a whole band of shepherdsis called together against it,it is not frightened by their shoutsor disturbed by their clamor—so the Lord Almighty will come downto do battle on Mount Zion and on its heights.5 Like birds hovering overhead,the Lord Almighty will shield Jerusalem;he will shield it and deliver it,he will ‘pass over’ it and will rescue it.”

6 Return, you Israelites, to the One you have so greatly revolted against.7 For in that day every one of you will reject the idols of silver and gold your sinful hands have made.

8 “Assyria will fall by no human sword;a sword, not of mortals, will devour them.They will flee before the swordand their young men will be put to forced labor.9 Their stronghold will fall because of terror;at the sight of the battle standard their commanders will panic,”declares the Lord,whose fire is in Zion,whose furnace is in Jerusalem.
